Your Flying Blue Miles earnings are determined by two key factors: the amount of money you spend on flights with Air France or KLM, and your specific Flying Blue membership level.
Understanding Your Miles Earning Potential
The number of Miles you earn directly correlates with the fare you pay for your ticket, excluding any government-imposed taxes and fees. Different Flying Blue status levels offer varying earning rates, rewarding loyal customers with more Miles per Euro spent.
Specifically, the Miles you earn depend on:
- The amount you spend on flights with Air France or KLM (this excludes government-imposed taxes and fees).
- Your current Flying Blue level.
Flying Blue Miles Earning Rates by Level
The following table illustrates how many Miles you will earn for each Euro spent, based on your Flying Blue status:
| Flying Blue Level | Miles Earned per Euro Spent |
|---|---|
| Explorer | 4 Miles |
| Silver | 6 Miles |
| Gold | 7 Miles |
For example, if you are a Silver member and purchase a flight with Air France or KLM for €300 (excluding taxes and fees), you would earn 300 Euros 6 Miles/Euro = 1,800 Miles. Similarly, a Gold member spending the same amount would earn 300 Euros 7 Miles/Euro = 2,100 Miles.
It's important to remember that these calculations apply to the base fare amount only, not the total ticket price which often includes additional taxes and fees.
